A former soldier who had to have his leg amputated after an accident during an army training session is now training to be the world’s strongest disabled man.

Mark Smith, 33, was shot six times in his right leg, and once in his arm while he was serving for the Grenadier Guards in Canada. He had his right leg amputated above the knee two days after he was shot, ending his career in the military.
